2. Bernie WON Kansas over Hillary in the primary.

In the Presidential election, even Wichita and Topeka's counties went for Shitgibbon.

Hillary only won two Kansas counties. Kansas hasn't voted for a Democrat in a presidential election since 1964.

This is exactly the thing I'm talking about: Why is it that we have to work SO PAINFULLY HARD to pry votes from Republicans despite overwhelming historical evidence that things are economically better under Democrats? I seriously think "Republican" is the default in many of these states, and they don't really have to work nearly as hard to convince people to vote for them as we do.
